After all, if He created us (though obviously you'd dispute this), He'd have the right to tell us how our parts should be used. And if the end result is accurately portrayed by Him, then it is dangerous indeed, even if there is no apparent present harm. All sin is, and can <b>only</b> be permanently fixed through Jesus. Lest you think I'm pointing fingers, we've <b>all</b> sinned. Homosexuality is no worse than all the other sins that separate all of us from our creator. As for <i>fearing</i> homosexuals, I must say I'm less fearful of them than where that choice, along with many others, leads to. Just maybe God knows more than we do about right and wrong.

Folks, we’re all “broken” in various ways.

How do you know homosexuals are “broken”?

The lesson the Bible teaches is that we have someone on our side in reconciling ourselves to God.

The lesson the Bible teaches is that something completely natural is somehow against God’s will.

Also, Adrian, a belief system cannot hate you…if anything this one actually opens its arms to welcome you.

“Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination” Leviticus 18:22

That is not welcoming, it is hatred.

Individuals who don't understand may hate you, but this would show they aren't adhering to Christianity. I encourage you to continue to challenge those who spew hate, as they need to be rebuked.
